Well, another year goes by -- and another set of predictions goes up here at Rhymes With Right.
Here are the things I see in the coming year -- let's see if I do better than I did for the year just passed, or can beat my 2005 predictions.
1) Good news -- Fidel Castro finally dies. Bad news -- Kim Jong-Il and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad don't.
2) Pelosi only seeks to remove GOP alligators from her ethical swamp -- and seeks a special investigation of the DOJ when John Murtha is indicted over his recently disclosed connections with a non-profit group.
3) Tom DeLay finally gets a trial after the Court of Criminal Appeals tosses the Ronnie Earle's attempt to create an ex post facto application of campaign finance law. DeLay will be found not guilty.
4) There will be a troop surge in Iraq beginning in March, with numbers being decreased in July. Next December will see fewer US troops in Iraq than are there as 2006 ends. Presidential poll numbers will rise as the troop surge stabilizes Iraq.
5) We will see a July resignation from the Supreme Court -- and there will be a serious fight over the confirmation of the president's choice of replacement.
6) Congressman Nick Lampson finds it necessary to strike a balance between his overwhelmingly conservative district and his overwhelmingly liberal Democrat supporters. He will have thoroughly alienated one or the other by this time next year, and polls will show him quite vulnerable to either a primary or general election challenge in 2008 (depending on which group he angers).
7) The Texas Legislature will screw up property tax reduction again -- and do nothing significant about teacher salaries and insurance. Congress screws up immigration reform, doing nothing to fix the leaking border while granting amnesty.
8) Royal weddings: Prince William and Kate Middleton, Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky.
9) The Houston Texans make David Carr actually compete for the starting quarterback position after drafting University of Houston QB Kevin Kolb in the third round. Carr remains starter, but has to keep an eye over his shoulder while leading the team to its first playoff appearance in franchise history (as a wild card team) -- but Kolb is clearly the future in Houston.
10) Muslims riot yet again over a perceived slight to Muhammad.

Comments on Predictions -- 2007
You had me up to #9. I can't seriously believe Coach Kubiak will keep Carr as the starter this year. From the little I know of the Texans, they have good players and Carr just doesn't seem like a general to me...
As for #10... that's not really a prediction, is it? I thought it was a common occurrence.
|| Posted by Matt, January 1, 2007 10:37 AM ||Well, #9 is my long shot -- and is predicated upon taking a "quarterback of the future" in the mid rounds rather than a "starter right now". Kolb would be the sort of guy who, after a year of trailing Kubiak like a puppy dog, would be a likely contender to start. In the interim, you have a Car/Rosenfels battle for the job of starter.
And as for #10, it is sort of the "gimme" prediction.
